Clinic nurse Evelyn wakes up in a luxury Las Vegas suite sporting an unexpected diamond ring beside an enigmatic aristocrat. The intoxicating stranger turns out to be Julian, her hospital's newly appointed chief executive and a three-hundred-year-old vampire. To avoid corporate scandal and appease his ancient elders, they strike a strict forty-five-day contract marriage guarded by ironclad boundaries.
The arrangement ignites office hostility as venomous colleagues label Evelyn an opportunist, while Julian's feral thirst pushes him to gnaw his own flesh rather than feed on her. When a jealous vampire socialite sabotages the medical facility during an impending solar alignment, Evelyn arms herself with silver to defend her workplace. She refuses to play a subservient mortal pet, forcing the ancient predator to respect her strength.
